just magnesium glycinate enough

[the MOUSE]

or should order others forms too like citrate?

@the-MOUSE Glycinate alone has the best results for me. I would test one at a time so you know how yiu react to each

@the-MOUSE the only objection to it is it's pricey.

And I don't need the glycine. I already eat enough gelatin.

So I could settle for a form of magnesium with a weakly acidic or weakly alkaline anion, or neutral anions.

Magnesium oxide
Magnesium acetate

Not sure about magnesium citrate. Although citrate raises zeta-potential and helps with blood flow, it is said to bind with calcium more easily and leads to more calcium being excreted in urine, but I think people with acidic pH ecf need not worry as the citrate gets resorbed back to blood in the kidney tubules, but if you have good acid base balance or your ecf is alkaline...

magnesium carbonate (seems okay, not sure if Ray would find it is as acceptable as calcium carbonate, which Ray likes in the form of eggshells)

Ray recommended magnesium carbonate multiple times in his podcasts on KMUD. I think he said to take 1 gram serving of the powder which is around ~100mg of magnesium. He said as long as you tolerate it (dont get hemorrhoids or headaches which he said was common) then this form is useful. Mag glycinate is one of the more bioavailable ones but more expensive.

Magnesium citrate is quite laxative… I personally feel good with magnesium glycinate.

Magnesium chloride can be mixed with water and applied topically.

I would like to know which magnesium form is ideal to mix with salt and potassium chloride, I’m trying to make a homemade electrolyte mix…
